Chapter 10 City

The days in the wilderness are always the same. During the day, you walk in a certain direction, and at night, you find a cave to spend the night.

The scenery along the way never changes, it is always desolate and desolate, and the only living creatures are those low vegetation.

Unknowingly, twenty days have passed, and I don’t know how far I have gone. It has slowly become a mechanical habit.

Originally, he was full of faith in continuing to walk. There was no need to worry about food anyway, and the little wolf never needed to eat or drink. He believed that people would always be found and it would not be deserted forever, but he was wrong after all.

He never expected to be alone. Even in Taiyi Temple, where there was only Taoist Taiyi besides him, he was never lonely.

Although he has a little wolf accompanying him now, the life without water has made his tolerance, which has always been neat and tidy, reach its limit.

He once thought about pouring out the fairy wine to clean it up, but he was wrong. No matter how he tossed the magical bottle, he couldn't spill even a drop unless he sucked it with his mouth.

He had thrown away the tattered Taoist robe long ago, the pure white underwear had long turned black, and the long hair that was originally tied into a bun had long since fallen loose.

In just twenty days, he had changed beyond recognition and turned into a dirty, sloppy person that even he felt disgusted with. Only the little wolf never left him and would always sleep next to him every night. This was his only

comfort.

Maybe this is an abandoned place. After twenty days, we have traveled thousands of miles. How could it be possible that nothing has changed? There are no humans here at all, and not even the slightest trace of human activities can be found.

But in his subconscious, he felt that there was a pair of eyes that had been spying secretly, like those scavenging vultures watching the dying prey in the sky, waiting for it to feast upon its death.

This feeling was like a thorn in his back, and it seemed to be taunting him, give up, there is nothing to hold on to, die quickly, we are waiting for dinner.

This is like a seed that gradually sprouts in Ye Feng's heart. Maybe this is a desperate situation. What else is there to hold on to?

"Woof woof woof!"

In his wild thoughts, just when Ye Feng wanted to give up, the little wolf suddenly screamed happily.

"Hahaha, river!"

The cry of the wolf wolf brought Ye Feng back from his thoughts. He looked along the wolf wolf running wildly and saw that there was a big river in front of him.

“Comfortable, so comfortable!”

Ye Feng didn't even have time to take off his clothes and jumped directly into the river to wash himself. This kind of comfort was unimaginable and he almost didn't want to go ashore.

"River! Since ancient times, people have had the habit of choosing water to live. Perhaps you can find human settlements by following the water source."

Ye Feng, who was lying naked on the green grass by the river, looked at the washed clothes and hung them to dry, and said to himself.

"Woof woof woof!"

Naturally, the only one who responded to him was the wolf cub, and his cry showed that he also agreed.

"Little Wolf, I've been through a lot of trouble for you these days. When I find a place with people, it's time for you to have a nice meal!"

Ye Feng couldn't understand why the little wolf didn't need to eat or drink. He could breathe air and not be hungry. Isn't this what people on Earth often call drinking wind? It was really hard to understand.

"Woof woof woof!"

"Haha, how dare you say I have no money!"

"Woof woof woof!"

"Humph, I'm a Taoist master, and I'm proficient in Taoism. Find a place with people, do rituals, write some talismans, and make money is not a problem!"

One person and one wolf, one is talking to himself, and the other can only respond with barking. I don't know whether he really understands what the other person means, or if they are talking about their own things.

"It's almost time to go!"

The sun had already turned to the west, and the clothes to be dried were already dry. Ye Feng put on his clothes, looked at himself, and smiled with satisfaction.

"What a big mountain!"

A few days later, a huge mountain range lay in front of us. Although it was still far away, the peaks hidden in the clouds and mist could be seen at a glance as high as a thousand feet.

Looking up the mountain, Ye Feng ran to death until the sky was slightly dark and night was about to fall. Ye Feng did not reach the foot of the mountain.

Ye Feng felt helpless as he looked at the river that was cut into two parts and flowed around the mountain.

The little wolf was impatient and barked twice before jumping into the river, apparently wanting to swim to the other side.

"Haha, if you are impatient, just swim."

Looking at the little wolf swimming towards the other side, Ye Feng smiled bitterly and jumped in without bothering to take off his clothes.

The river is not wide to begin with. After being diverted, it is only about ten feet long. The water flow is also very gentle, so it doesn't take much effort to swim.

It's just that it's getting late, and I'm already feeling a bit chilly, so I have to hurry up. The temperature difference between day and night here is still quite large. By earth's standards, it's definitely below zero.

The mountain is a good one, with giant trees and rugged rocks.

It's just that it's getting late, so it's not the time to appreciate it. Finding a place to stay is the top priority.

It is not difficult to find a cave in the mountains. The strange thing is that Ye Feng slept very soundly that night. The feeling of being spied on disappeared, and his mood improved inexplicably.

The next day, it was still the little wolf and the wolf who took the lead and climbed the mountain directly.

There are no roads in the mountains, but if you have a little wolf, you don’t have to worry about getting lost. The climb is not slow at all.

Although the mountain is not steep, there are jagged and strange rocks everywhere, and it takes a lot of time to walk around. It was not until noon that we finally succeeded in climbing to the top.

Ye Feng's goal is not to climb over this mountain. What he hopes more is to be able to look far away from the top of the mountain, and maybe find human traces, or even see any living things.

"Woof woof woof!"

Just when Ye Feng was still a few steps away from the top of the mountain, the little wolf who was the first to reach the top started barking.

"Haha, is anyone smoking?"

We have been together for nearly a month. Although the little wolf cannot speak, it is very spiritual. Ye Feng has a very good understanding of it and can roughly understand its meaning from its bark.

"Haha! What a big city!"

Ye Feng looked at the giant city at the foot of the mountain and laughed.

"Little Wolf, go down quickly. It looks like you're still far away, otherwise it will be difficult to get there today!"

"Woof woof woof!"

Xiaolang's response is always the same, and perhaps only Ye Feng can understand what it expresses.

Going down the mountain went very smoothly. After all, Ye Feng was in pretty good shape and Xiaolang seemed to never get tired. It only took more than two hours to reach the foot of the mountain.

There is a road at the foot of the mountain, which is more than ten feet wide. The road is paved with bluestone slabs. There are overgrown weeds in the cracks between the stones and the dust is extremely thick. It has obviously not been used for a long time.

As early as on the top of the mountain, Ye Feng discovered this road and knew that this road led to the giant city. However, for some reason, this road was abandoned and had not been used for a long time.

In fact, on the way down the mountain, he discovered that there were no traces of human activity here, and he also didn't see any animals or birds.

The whole mountain was dead silent, like a dead mountain, and the bottom of the mountain was also barren, with weeds and thorns growing randomly, which looked very strange, and I had a vague premonition in my heart.

He could only hope that the giant city would not be an empty city. He was too eager to communicate with people and find out what this place was.

Sure enough, the city visible to the naked eye was still far away. It was not until the moon reached the zenith that we managed to reach the outside of the city.
